Collection Policy: The Indiana University Libraries Moving Image Archive (IULMIA) prioritizes human connection while preserving media of purpose and practice – moving images created with specific social, educational, or cultural objectives as well as works that explore the craft of media making itself. Our collection encompasses educational films, amateur productions, TV commercials, industrial videos, home movies, student projects, and experimental shorts. This categorization acknowledges the varied roles of moving images in informing, documenting, persuading, commemorating, and developing skills across contexts. Through hands-on engagement with these educational, cultural, and everyday materials, we amplify underrepresented voices and create accessible experiences, using the IULMIA Screening Room for community learning and horizontal skill-sharing.

27,578 films in this collection.
